Kara,
One more thing - I tried 3 times with lithium orotate. Gave it every chance but no luck, and with my thyroid problems I REALLY wanted it to work. The forms of lithium you hear about are orotate, citrate and carbonate. The only one that seems to work for bipolars is carbonate. No matter what the Serenity folks, Dr. Nieper or others say on this matter, lithium orotate does not work for the vast majority. Neither does lithium citrate, touted by mineral products and waters from therapeutic spas.Just a head's up, but also know that there have been a few sucesses with orotate over the years. Two that I recall. They post and then are never heard from again - hopefully a good sign. Another head's up is that you don't have to take the excessive doses of Li carbonate usually prescribed to reach 'therapeutic levels'. Much less works just fine. Can't you tell? :-{ No, really! ;-o
